At first I found the footnotes distracting but they ended up being a useful addenda and clarification for the poems. I am not a Plath fan but the book intrigued me enough to want to learn more about her life and personality. An absorbing read for Plath fans and motivated readers who are not too familiar with her.

10/6/16 I picked this up after reading about it in Michael Cart's "Young Adult Literature: From Romance to Realism" and realized I had already read it! But I read it again anyway and now I am really interested in learning more about Sylvia Plath's life. Source notes in the back list titles for further reading and research. What a talented but troubled woman! ( )

Would have preferred a biography in prose but a creative approach in illuminating Plath's life. ( )

This is a book of poetry inspired by the life of Sylvia Plath. I was a little surprised to find it on audiobook until I got the hang of listening to it. The poems are told from the perspective of people who knew Sylvia; mother, siblings, boyfriends, doctors, friends and acquaintances. For each poem there is a brief introduction regarding who is speaking and then the poem. Afterwards the author reads any foot notes regarding the time of Sylvia's life or the person speaking. I actually found this a little confusing. That information comes across as though it should be part of the introductory info and I kept getting confused about who and sometimes what the next poem was going to be about.

It was definitely an interesting way to tell the story of Sylvia's life. I found the poems telling the story from someone's point of view more interesting then the poems that were just written "in the style of" specific poems by Sylvia. Sometimes the "in the style" poems felt jarring b/c they weren't entirely contributing to the ongoing narrative. ( )
